Give one example of an extrinsic homeostatic mechanism overriding an intrinsic homeostatic process.
NeTakaya

Answer:

Extrinsic regulatory mechanisms are external and depend on the firing of some factor outside the population itself. Among them are interspecific competition, food and space restrictions, very strong climatic variations, weathering and inharmonious relationships with other populations (parasitism and predatism).

Good examples of interspecific competition appear when rabbits, caves, rats compete for the same plant, or different fish and birds, such as the heron, vie for the same species of smaller fish. This is because these different species keep their populations in the same ecological niche. Competition is often so strong that some species eventually, as one example of an extrinsic homeostatic mechanism overriding an intrinsic homeostatic process is their disappearance or migration to other regions.

In this competition, the presence of adaptations among individuals in the population that promote better food search, speed, vision, and others can make the difference between elimination and survival.

Why is it necessary to seperate oxygenated and deoxygenated blood in mamals and birds? explain​
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

It is necessary to separate oxygenated and deoxygenated blood separate in mammals and birds to maintain their body temperature. Also, if they both are mixed, the blood will get impure and it would be difficult for the heart to supply impure blood. We also can't live with impure blood so we most probably will die.

Identify a probable reason that the dark moths survived while the light moths did not.
kirill [66]

Answer:

This question has little context, but I understand what you are trying to say.

The reason why dark moths survived while light moths weren't able to survive is due to the dark moths having conditions that allowed them to camouflage better than the light moths. An environmental condition that would allow this would be the dark moths and the light moths living in the same dark environment.
